me?!

wow, I think I have actually become scared of blogging!!  But it is weird how one thing has been highlighted to me repeatedly in the past months/weeks!
The people I call my friends.  It was weird, I had Alpha, pastorate and helping with the cafe all end around the same week, and someone commented 'now you can make time for your 'non Christian' friends, the phrase struck me as a bit odd.  I had never really classed my friends into any specific groups, it's always been new ones and the ones that have known me for years? But I put it to the back of my mind and enjoyed the new free time that I had.

Helping on Alpha is going pretty great, finding it a bit hard to keep my mouth shut, but a little prayer goes a long way - and I just had to pass something on that was said last night because it put me firmly in a place that I can't explain - it just made sense, and trust me it had a very talkative bunch silent for a few minutes. I am sure people have heard this and if i get a few of the words wrong I'm sorry!

Ok this is a bit weird, I haven't blogged in a while and there are so many things going through my head that I pray that I get the right words down.

My parents recently came up to the UK to visit me, now a year ago, this would have been my worst nightmare - overprotective dad and slightly more chilled mum............or so I thought.  Now the day comes and they arrive, well mum arrived a few days before dad, and I get to the airport and I see my mum and, I know this is embarrassing, but I just broke down - that was it, I just about managed to hold it together and not crush her with hug or start blubbering.  I really don't know what happened.  I just realised that I loved her so much, and lo and behold the same thing happened with my dad a few days later?? WEIRD!!!

ok well i completely didn't see the whole blog so here are the rest of the pics and the answers

 I love London in Autumn, especially on the banks o the Thames

ok my name - this all depends on whether you use Kira or my full name ?? but I though this was cute ...

ok Di, this is the image I like best............
Bridgetown, Barbados

If your answer was no, good, cus I honestly don't have a clue.  I mean with work it's sorta easy - I know where I want to be, and the approximate time span - but I have several different ways of getting there - not sure which one to choose yet or a combination - ya know a little mix and match?? Variety!

Its amazing how the little things make you feel so happy eh? Flowers (finally got given some after 24 years!!) for example, sitting in the lounge with tulips in little vases everywhere and suddenly I am opening the windows and blinds, smiling to myself everytime I look at them, going out and finally buying some pastels to start doing some art work?? Or seeing someone you just haven't been able to meet up with in ages, just to have a chat and a hug.  It reminds you that you'r alive I guess, it's amazing how God puts things in your life that, when you think you're so far away, draws you back into Him. 

Gosh, it all seems a bit surreal.  I have gone from having no blogs to 3?? This is all a bit strange, but for someone like me who is not so great at talking, its actually quite nice!!!
